Petition Stop building houses on green land while there is a mass of derelict buildings.

At present we are in a housing crisis which developers are going about the wrong way. We need to be building on brownfield land and refurbishing, converting or rebuilding derelict buildings for new homes. We're destroying our green land at an alarming rate which needs to stop.

More details

There are large amounts of abandoned buildings and factories all over the country that have been left for numerous years to fall in to decay and some even demolished and left. We need to be building on these areas before destroying our countryside with housing developments.
